Ride of Your Life

When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and go to the city. We lived on a farm and, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I finished school, I moved to the capital(首都). However, I soon discovered that city life had its problems, too.

One big problem in cities is money---it costs(花费) so much, not including food and housing. Another problem is pollution. I have suffered from asthma (患有哮喘) since I was five. So when the air is so bad, I am afraid to go outside. As for travelling round, I hardly ever drive a car because of the heavy traffic. Many people choose to go by bike, but that can be quite dangerous.

Of course there is something good in cities, too. You can find a lot to do in the city, both in culture and entertainment(娱乐). Also, there are different kinds of wonderful jobs and people can make more money. Finally, if you like shopping, the stores are very surprising---and, what is more, they are often only a short walk away.

Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are teenagers or in your twenties. However, as you get older, and especially when you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem better. I certainly hope to move back there soon.

根据短文内容,判断句子正(T)、误(F)。

1.The writer was always thinking about running away from the school.

2.In the passage, the writer tries to describe his life in the countryside.

3.The writer suffers from asthma because he moved to the city.

4.The writer explains three advantages(优点) of the city life.

5.From the passage we know that the writer lives in the city now.
